Good list. If you could put some info what differentiates each coin, that would be more helpful.

well, i had one line info for everyone, but decided to delete it - to much controversy, there are coin-talibans, supporters , neutrals, sceptics, haters and smoothie. if I add info there would be a firestorm.

Wow good job xorxor and FuzzyBear. Here is some minor corrections to Fuzzy's data:

ixc cap likely not 21m as block subsidy starts at 96 coin.lqc has no cap as block subsidy has a minimum of 1 coin.unlike dev/lqc, ppc total money supply is better described as non-deterministic rather than no-cap.frc cap is 100m.

dvc: 90% block subsidy goes to foundationfrc: 80% block subsidy goes to foundation for the first 3 years (about 500 coins for each of first 161280 blocks, total 80m)

Ty SunnyKing I have included ur edits other than the ixcoin which acording to this link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=36218.0 says that:"Ixcoin is a fork of Bitcoin with twice the inflation rate of 96 Ixcoins per block and the same 21 million total limit"

Ah you are right I missed it. Ixcoin completely stops block subsidy by 2015 and only sustains mining via transaction fees. That's why the list of summary is very helpful

LOL at your eight different altcoin wallets, I thought you were one of those collectors and I was right Time to get a NMC wallet and then you have reasonably completed the active set

i want to keep it informational, no my or anyone else opnion, so i need help to determine controversial topics:

1. should I move ixcoin to "alive and well" ? in my opinion it's premined coin left by supporters & pools , but I can see advanced users like FuzzyBear wishing it there. was it merged-mined from the begining?

2. made a oneliner info for every single one, need comments/corrections/improovement on that before I'll include them in first post :
